If Not for the Sea
Best Ensemble Ottawa Fringe Festival 2007
A seaside village is shaken at the roots when a strange and mysterious man washes ashore. Woven through a physical score of sound and rhythm, If Not for the Sea traces the tragic tale of the union between Mae and the unwelcome stranger, one undisputedly condemned by the villagers.
"This first-time director is a fearless artist - she melds evil clown characters, heavily stylized movement and ghostly vocalization into a beautiful fairytale by the sea. ... The sheer creativity and originality of the show makes this a must-see at the Fringe." Ottawa Xpress
Produced at the 2007 Ottawa Fringe Festival
Written and directed by Emma Zabloski
Performed by Ashley Corley, Sebastian Samur, Artem Barry, Constant Bernard, Anthony Biggs, Allie Thompson, and Colleen Durham
